DIRECT. Fires: it will not be “not possible” to replant forests in Gironde, says the Minister of Ecology

Asked how to prevent such fires from happening again, Christophe Béchu evokes “the question of clearing”. “There are plenty of places where the rules on the subject are not applied”, he assures, announcing in passing that a “flash mission” is launched on the question. He also explains, still on RTL, that if “global warming creates the conditions for fires to start” in “most cases, there are humans at the origin” of the fires.
